THE GROWTH HISTORY

Disclaimer

This presentation relating to MMX Mineração e Metálicos S.A. (“MMX”) includes “forward-looking statements”, as that term is defined in the Private

Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

All statements other than statements of historical facts are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements and are often characterized

by the use of words such as “projects”, “expects”, “anticipates”, “intends”, “plans”, “believes”, “estimates”, “may”, “will”, or “intends”, or by discussions

or comments about our objectives, strategy, plans or intentions and results of operations. Forward-looking statements include projections regarding

our operating capacity, operating expenditures, capital expenditures and start-up dates.

By their nature, these forward-looking statements involve numerous assumptions, uncertainties and opportunities, both general and specific. The

risk exists that these statements may not be fulfilled or, even if they are fulfilled, the results or developments described in such statements may not

be indicative of results or developments in future periods. We caution participants of this presentation not to place undue reliance on these forward-

looking statements as a number of factors could cause future results to differ materially from these statements.

Forward-looking statements may be influenced in particular by factors such as the ability to obtain all required regulatory approvals on a timely basis

or at all, exploration for mineral resources and reserves, difficulty in converting geological resources into mineral reserves, and changes in economic,

political and regulatory conditions. We caution that the foregoing list is not exhaustive. When relying on forward-looking statements to make

decisions, investors should carefully consider these factors as well as other uncertainties and events.

MMX does not undertake to update our forward-looking statements unless required by law. This presentation is neither an offer to sell (which can

only be made pursuant to definitive offering documents) nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities in the United States, or any other

jurisdiction. The securities referred to herein have not been registered in any jurisdiction, and in particular, will not be registered under the U.S.

Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any applicable state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or

an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.

This presentation and its contents are proprietary information and may not be reproduced or otherwise disseminated in whole or in part without

MMX’s prior written consent.

MMX, committed with sustained

development principles, has acquired

and maintains the Eng. Eliezer

Batista Private Natural Heritage

Reserve, in the heart of Pantanal

(largest wetland in the world), an

impressive and relevant area in terms

of bio-diversity and natural richness.

This Heritage Reserve will be the first research and studies center of wetlands in the planet, where there are

hundreds of mammals, including jaguars, 300 species of fishes and more than 700 species of birds, some of them

considered endangered species. The Reserve has its Stewardship Management Plan ready since the beginning,

reflecting MMX´s commitment with preservation.

Pig Iron & Billet Market

Pig Iron and Billet prices have reached their peak in 2008 and the current market scenario - high demand for

steel products, high raw materials and energy prices and low steel scrap offer – appoints for continuous

potential upsides in the pig iron and billet prices.
